Wiktionary talk:Autopatrol

Rules are a suggestion[change]

Hi there! I made this page as a start. If you disagree with it, feel free to change it. If you agree, so please tell us here. If no concerns/disagrees/agrees are risen in the next day, I'll make it a hard rule. --Barras (talk) 14:55, 15 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with everything written there, except for the bit about inactivity. I don't see why the right should be removed just because someone isn't editing, also three months seems to be too short a time period. I went ahead and removed that bit, since you said feel free to change it. :-) Cheers, Tempodivalse [talk] 17:17, 15 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It's ok.

Part that needs to be discussed:

The right will be removed after three months of inactivity.

Perhabs six months? All thoughts are welcome. --Barras (talk) 17:27, 15 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, i don't think the right should be removed due to inactivity at all. I just don't see the point of it. Tempodivalse [talk] 20:15, 15 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Now it is a hard as no one disagreed with the current suggestion. Future changes should be discussed. --Barras ^talk 15:18, 31 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Changes to the Autopatroller policy[change]

The following are what I propose to change the Autopatroller hard rule to. Please comment on my suggested changes :) Thanks, Razor flame 22:29, 26 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The user should request the tool on the requests for permissions page under the appropriate header.
The requesting user must be active here for at least two weeks.
The requesting user must link to at least five (5) articles which are "complete" and have at least one interwiki (self added), checked if the English Wiktionary has the pronunciation and added it if it did, and also made sure to include any synonyms, antonyms, related words, hyphenations, and other spellings as needed. Entries that have been created using the acceleration tool do not count.
- Any entries linked to that are nouns must include the {{countable}} and {{uncountable}} templates before any definitions to help show which definitions are using the word as a countable noun and which ones are using it as an uncountable noun.
- Any entries linked to that are verbs must include the {{transitive}} or {{intransitive}} templates before any definitions to help show which kind of verb the definition is explaining.
- Any entries linked to must have the definition written in this kind of way and must have all important words in the definition hyperlinked:
  - A '''telephone''' is a machine used to call other people.
- There should be no spaces in between the equal signs of a header and the header name and there should be a space in between the # symbol in the definition and the beginning of a template or the definition.
